Where Has The Year gone??!!!

The year is going fast, (to be honest it's going just as fast as any other year with the exception of leap years). It does feel like every year goes faster then the previous year.

We started the year on a high, resolutions were made, declarations declared, "I'll do this, I'll stop this, "there was so much optimism and excitement that usually comes with a new year.

Now we're in July, 7 months gone only 5 more to go. Have you been reflecting on your January goals, are you on track with them? Are you happy with your progress?

Goals are great, but like anything else they require consistency,discipline and determination to achieve them. We have to take the time and foster good habits and patterns that will help us achieve our goals.
When we're unable to obtain our goals we can sometimes end up feeling disappointed and feeling like failures. Listen; you're are not a failure.
If you've gone off track on your goals, it's A-Oh-Kay,don't beat yourself up about it. Take the time to reflect on your goals and see what's been stopping you from staying on track.You'll have to be really honest with yourself when doing this.
The good thing with goals is that  you don't have to wait for January to make them, you can make goals today or any day. The best time to make changes to your life is when YOU decide.

So  from July- December, let's kick the crap out of our goals.You can do it, I can do it, We can do it! So let's make these last 5 months of the year super productive and effective. #yougotthis

The Blog Virgin

Ok so i've been hearing about this blogging thing for years now and i always thought well that's nice but it doesn't seem like it's for me. Then the other night i was telling my hubby that "hey you should write a blog about your experiences"(he has a very interesting story but we'll save that for another blog). So then i thought "why don't i take my own advice." So here i am a "blog virgin" about to find perhaps the love of my life lol?

Today's blog will be a rant!
I am sooo tired of these stupid blackout and water shortages they not only are causing inconveniences but stopping most people from doing their monthly household shopping. Yes I know that we are in a developing country and all but puhhleaase spare me!
We have gone literally 1 week with either no water or lights and most of the Easter long weekend without both!! THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! I don't care how poor you say this country is but the last time i checked water and electricity were basic human rights! This is a TRAVESTY of 21st century urban living.

What is more disturbing is that NOBODY seems to really be doing anything about it, we've all kinda come to accept this ABNORMALITY as a perfectly normal and acceptable occurance. No protests,petitions or big walks?!!! What's that all about seriously???!!! I'm baffled,flabbergasted and bamboozled. I know Malawians  are docile non confrontational people but these are our BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS!!!!

That aside I do loooove malawi it's full of exotic fruits and even more exotic people, the scenery is spectacular the food is organic and the cost of living relatively fair. What's not to love?

Malawi also has a potential tourism goldmine. But tell me this who'll want to visit if we don't get our act together? Who will want to invest with these frequent black-outs? Am jussayin!!! Food for thought people! Let's hold hands and rally peacefully together and make the people making decisions aware that things HAVE to change!
